The people of Ardara are proud and delighted to learn, that our very own Stephen McCahill is this years recipient of the Donegal Person of the Year award for 2016. The announcement was made at The Black Door Piano Bar on Harcourt Street in Dublin on Friday 21st January.

The people here in Ardara know of the tremendous time and effort Stephen has put into working for the community, and it is only fitting that he is now being recognised by the wider Donegal community here and in Dublin.
